02 Interviews

Detect deepfakes and proxy interviewers.

ApplicantX maps facial movement and analyzes video during live and AI interviews. Deepfakes, stand-ins, and identity mismatches are flagged and feed into one comprehensive fraud score.
Hiring managers get to focus on the conversation. If something’s off, you’ll know before round two hits the calendar. That means fewer wasted panels, fewer awkward follow-ups, and zero chance of handing an offer to someone’s stand-in.

03 Reference Checks

Catch fake references.

We cross-check device, IP, timing, and digital footprint across every reference, then confirm the relationship is real.
Four rave reviews from one iPhone in 49 minutes? Busted. We analyze reference sources across emails, devices, and even LinkedIn to verify what's real, so your team makes offers on feedback it can trust.
module-04-identity

04 Identity

Verify identity at any step.

A quick ID photo and a selfie. ApplicantX matches them, validates the ID, and triggers at any stage of the application where extra verification is needed based on the risk profile.
Same person from application to day one. Verification can start automatically, like when a candidate reaches the final stage, or when their fraud score crosses a threshold you set. Candidates finish in a couple of minutes, and nobody juggles another tool. Peace of mind without slowing anything down.

Multiple signals, connected across the entire application.

Candidate fraud doesn't look like one thing anymore. ApplicantX is designed to surface patterns across dozens of touch points, without treating any single signal as a conclusion.
Identity consistency

Ensure applicants are who they say they are.

Compare identity and information across applications, interviews, verification, and other hiring moments.
  • Email and phone reputation
  • Digital presence consistency
  • Identity and liveness verification
